[Mtech] is invaluable to companies like ours in that it allows us to leverage our own resources with those of the university and the national laboratories to maximize the output of our research and development efforts. I feel that the activities to-date, along with those to follow through this program, in the future, will be instrumental in permitting K&L Microwave to maintain its position as the market leader in microwave filters and to continue to be an aggressive growth company.
